HERR MOST.

what HE Says of the Decision OF the
Court In the Anarchist Case.
NEW YORK, Sept. 14.-The news of the
affirmation by the supreme court of Illi-
nois of the decision of the lower court, in
the condemned Chicago anarchists case,
caused great excitement among New York
socialists and anarchists. Herr Most was
furious. His anarchist paper, Freiheit,
had just gone to press when the news came.
The forms were ordered from the press, and
Most rolled up his sleeves and proceeded
to write an editorial addressed ITO Working
men of all Countries The editorial
was column and a half long as written in
his characteristic and violent style. He
characterizes the judges who made the
decision as Infamous and bloodthirsty
fools" and the jury as corrupt. Nov. ii.
was the day set for the murder of these
heroes Capitalists wished to see blood
flow, to show the people that they were
the law, and could do as they pleased.
''Workingmen." says he, twill you peace
fully allow this to take piace?,'
The cruel deed of November could
be prevented, if the anarchists SO
wished. The workingmen must show
their military strength, indignation,
mass meeting must be held at once and
money raised to fight the battle of justice
and the salvation of martyrs. Most goes
on TO demand decision in the case from
the United States supreme court, and SAYS
that agitation meetings should be held all
over the country until the court dare not
declare the law constitutional. Editor
Sheyitch, of the Leader, recognized leader
of the socialistic element in this city,
fercely denounced the affirmation of the
verdict

Pension Matters.

WASHINGTON. D. G. Sept. 14.-General
Black, commissioner, in his annual report
to the secretary makes several important
suggestions, among them the following:
That the allowance for minor children be
increased to S. per month; that the act Of
June 16, 1880, be extended to those who
subsequently became helpless through ag-
grayatfon of their malady, and
that widows pensions date from
the death of the husband; that
the law granting pensions according
to rank when the injury was received be
amended so that the rank subsequently ac-
quired, if bona ide, may be considered; that
the rate for deafness be increased to $50 Der
month for total deafness, with intermedi-
ate grades; that discretion be lodged
with the commissioner, in correcting dis
crepencles in the rates for loss of limbs:
that the commissioner be authorized to pay
to the wife or other suitable person, when
the pensioner is not q fit person. He
also asks for increased clerical force. and an
appropriation of $4,000 for additional
agencies. There were at the close of the wear
4O6,0 pensioners. Fifty-ive thousand
one hundred and ninety-four new
pensions were added to the rolls
during the year. and 2,707, which had
been dropped, were restored, and 1857
were dropped during the year. The ag-
gregate annual value of all pensions is
$50, S24, 645, an increase of like value for
the year of SO, 116, 633. The amount paid
for pensions during the year, was $73. 465,
581, an increase over the previous year of
S9.669,750. The amount paid the a, 404
new pensioners on first payment was

discussion OF Ets Affairs In the House
of Commons,

whssuA@kon OF kem Affairs an the House
of Commons.
LONDON, Sept. 13.-In the house of
commons this evening John Philip Nolan,
home ruler, asked if it were true that Will
ION o'Brien was confined in cell 9x4
feet and If Balfour, chief secretary for Ire
land, meant to order reasonable accomoda-
tions for the prisoner. Balfour had no
knowledge respecting the nature of the cell
occupied by O'Brien. Of course it was his
desire that O'Brien be comfortably CON-
lined, and the prison rules provided that
untried prisoners should have reasonable
accommodation. Nolan hoped the
government would relax the prison
rules, applicable to political ok
tenders, and in Ireland especially.
urged q modification of the degrading
duties enforced on common criminals.
Baifour was unable to see that the offenses
OF persons arrested under the crimes act
differed from offenses under the common
law. All prisoners should be treated alike.
Regarding the prison discipline he was
unable to conceive how the Irish members
could make any difference between prison
people and persons under arrest for melting
the people to crime and outrages. and
that given those under arrest
for committing crimes and outrages.
OBrien had only himself to thank
for being in custody. John Morley said
the action of Irish members was due to the
nature of the exceptional law forced on the
people and their country. He urged the
government to reconsider their refusal to
grant an inquiry into the conduct of the
police at Mitchellstown. ParnelI said the
government tried to strike terror into the
hearts of their opponents by treating
political prisoners like criminals of the
'basest type. Parnell said the goyern-
ment reporters were never moIested
at meetings in Ireland. The
police acted like towards, and were part OF
the system, which was a reign of terror,
within the prison, and murder without.
Instead of conceding Ireland right to man
age her own affairs, government had taken
her by the throat and was trying to strangle
her. In conclusion Parnell said he wished
Balfour well outside of his job. ''My only
fear is, added the Irish leader, 'slest some
men become SO exasperated is to commit
wild acts of revenge. / will continue,
however, to urge my countrymen to a
patient endurance of wrong and suffering
until they get home rule" Irish cheers. I

reading, and the house adjourned until

cured is the maintenance of the carload
rate as against the movement of eastern
JoIbers to make 100 pounds the unit. The
importance of securing a uniformity of
freight rates in the northwest will also be
brought before the commission. Another
matter to be considered is the importance
of national freight classification. There
will also be large number local and indi-
vidual complaints. The session of the
commission will be held in the chamber of

The are plenty of people VINO remem
ber when the only two seaside resorts on
the coast were Cape Nav and Long
Branch. The latter place, h 'wever, unIil
about the close OF the war did rot amount
t. much. Cape May WAS great resort
prior to the war for Southern people, par.
tlculary for Bait moreans. 1t has not

The Indinna Senator hin.

The fight for the Senatorshipi in Indiana
is fairly opened. Il is now beyond Qucs
tion that the Republicans are prepared to
resort 10 trickery, and even to revolu-
uonary methods, to elect a Republican
! 10 succeed Senator Ben Harrison.
The Democrats have a majority OF two
on JOINT ballot, and it is tie aim now Of
tie Republicans to overcome tina, ma
/ jority. Tney have control of the House,
/ aud TIE Democrats OF the Senate. Tn ere
is not much doubt that the man VINO W as
! sworn into flee on Monday, as Lleuten-
ant Governor, has no right to the place,
hu il was the ann Of the Republicans o
ct him into the position OF presiding
ficer oil the Senate, because there
he can be OF great benefit to
he conspIratOrs. The Democratic
Senators. as shown by our dispatches
yesterda,, did not appear at the joint
sess on az which the vote for Lieutenant
Governor was canvsSsed. hut tnat made
NJ difference to the Republicans. Their
rolramme is understood TO be to uGseat
several of the Democratic members Of
the House, and give their seats 20
t1ey hope to get majority in
the JOINT session. The Demo-
Gratis will try to defeat this programme.
They will raise vigorous objections in the
House and in the Senate. They may be
forced-to adopt retaliatOry course. To
pr vent them from doing that is the reason
the Repahlicans wers so anxious to
rave he4r Lieutenant Governor installed
l. is Expected of him that he VIII 50
hnpd sStne Kavel as to MAKE it extremely
d fBeult for the Democrats TO unseat Re-

The question is being discussed
whether The Governor OF the State, who
IS Democrat, can appoint "a Senator, pro-
Videdtbe LEGISLATURE tails to elect one.
The better opinion seems to be that b.
'nnot. He can Ill vacancy when one
exists until the next meeting of the
legislature, but where the Legis allure
has failed TO do its duty the constitution
does not give the Governor power t.
perform that duty. This same gu slion.
1t is alleged, was raised when there was
a prospect that the Illinois Legislature
would be unable to choose a Senator

standins that the Judiciary Com mittee Of

me wouldn't be valid one.
The ii bit in Indiana promises to be a
long, and, perhaps. bitter one. The entire
Republican party of the country IS inter-
ested in it. The Republican maj rity in
tho United States Senate is getting very
slim, and that party cannot afford to have
Senator Harrison succeeded by Demo-
crat.

The Electoral Count Bill

The electoral count bill has been 80
generally and fully discussed that the
whole country is famihar with it, and, it
is pretty safe to say, satisfied with 1t.
All that is desired is a safe guide in an
emergency like that Of 1876, and the pend
ing bill promises to be such a guide. The
main feature of it is that it recognizes tn
officially certified vote OF State as the
one most likely to be right, and the com.
mon sense OF the country admits the wis.
dom of this feature.
Delays are always dangerous in mat.
tels like this. The next session will see
the Presidential campaign opened, aud
then one party or the other may think it
will reap IN advantage In delaying lesis.
Iation relative TO the electoral count
Now is the time, therefore, to press the
bill to vote, and thus drive a stake
which the snip of State can tie to in the
event OF political storm. For once Co,
gress ought TO make an effort to pass
promptly bill upon which great interes {
may depend in the near future.
